From 2017 onwards, it is the global stock market soaring by more than 20%. Central banks in developed economies such as the United States have raised interest rates and alleviated some emergency stimulus measures.

The new stock market record makes BlackRock top and bottom line in 2017 up 20%, the world’s largest fund management company assets of more than 6 trillion US dollars. Quarterly revenue for the BlackRock index and ETF products hit a record 103 billion U.S. dollars, making it the year to come. The result is an eye-opener.

In the fourth quarter, BlackRock reached 3.5 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 20% over the same period of last year, and its net profit eclipsed the deficit by one billion U.S. dollars. Even though investors flocked to low-fee products, the operating profit margin of the company continued to rise, which showed the economies of scale. Operating profit margin of more than 44% for the whole year, net assets of about 36.7 billion US dollars into BlackRock products, profit margins in the fourth quarter fell 20 basis points, setting a record quarter-point level of 45%.

He believes global investors are still in low-risk stocks, with everyone from retirement savers to large pension funds putting money on the market and increasingly choosing low-cost ways to build their exposure. Fink said in a earnings report: “Investors are increasingly looking for a comprehensive solution, and BlackRock in the provision of large-scale investment strategy, industry-leading risk management and portfolio construction technology and thought leadership Differentiation capabilities are driving more customer partnerships.

The next BlackRock is China. In January, the company gained local registration, manufacturing and distribution of onshore investment products.

When it comes to Wall Street other “billionaires” such as JPMorgan Chase JPM -0.36%, Bank of America BAC + 0.16% and Citigroup C + 0.35%, earnings are not driven by the market. On the contrary, the real economy is driving profits.

On Friday morning, the company’s quarterly revenue rose 5% to $ 25.5 billion, excluding the one-time tax revenue of $ 6.7 billion due to legal changes, up more than 10%. It is noteworthy that the source of growth from where.

The company’s consumer bank top and bottom line growth of more than 10%, consumer and commercial banking business increased by 15%. In total, the department’s revenue was 12.1 billion U.S. dollars and its profit was 2.6 billion U.S. dollars.

This is often a driver of the company’s overall profitability compared to JPMorgan’s market-oriented investment banks. Fourth quarter net income fell 12% to $ 7.5 billion and profits fell 32% to $ 2.3 billion. Trading revenue fell 22% due to a 34% decline in fixed income trading. This was a particularly strong quarter a year ago, but the same was true of the market: Low and volatile credit spreads contained profits. Tax changes exacerbate the decline in profits, but this may be one-off.

JPMorgan’s major event is to increase the demand for banks from the average consumer, small and large businesses, and wealthy savers. Together with rising interest rates, JP Morgan’s share prices are soaring. Net interest income rose 11% to $ 13.4 billion. As the largest bank in the United States, the positive changes in the real economy and the normalization of the Federal Reserve have a significant impact. Net interest income rose 9% in 2017 to $ 50.1 billion, more than double JPM’s 4% revenue growth.

There are two disparate stories between BlackRock and JP Morgan. Investors face emerging markets directly with companies such as BlackRock, Apollo, Blackstone and KKR, which are increasingly investing in money. The traditional Wall Street banking giants are finding market revenue not a passion, but as the economy continues to recover, their usual earnings growth comes from basic banking like loans.

Look at MS -0.94% earnings from Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley to verify this trend. JP Morgan Chase & Co. may see their trading business decline. However, growth may come from emerging sectors such as Goldman’s Marcus Consumer Loans Services and Morgan Stanley’s wealth loan business.
